Dear John,

See what your donation can do on the ground

 
 
Donate $50 to provide supplementary food
Sadeqa Bibi, and her son, are among 152 Rohingya refugees rescued in South Aceh, Indonesia, in October 2024

Your gift help us to supply life-saving nutrition to promote healthy development and fight malnutrition among vulnerable refugee children

Donate $100 to provide emergency shelter
UNHCR delivers emergency relief items to earthquake-affected people in Chan Thar Kone shelter

By providing emergency shelter, insulation materials, shelter repair kits, and even building new homes, we’re helping to keep out the cold

 
 
Donate $200 to fund counselling
Olena, 33, and her son Mykyta, 5, were evacuated from Mariupol on 14 March 2022

Psychological aid helps people to begin to recover - practically and emotionally – from the trauma of violence and conflict

Donate $300 to provide cash assistance
Hryhorii, 71, and Liubov, 58, live in the Chernihiv region in northern Ukraine

Cash grants help people to buy the essentials to make it through the winter months, from warm clothes to fuel for heating.

 
 

With a year of painful funding cuts, UNHCR’s ability to provide support is being severely weakened. This means that 11.6 million people are at direct risk of losing assistance this year.

By choosing a life-saving gift, you can help us make sure families forced to flee continue receiving the protection and support they urgently need.

Thank you for continuing to support refugees and people forced to flee this winter. Your compassion and kindness will help to ensure that UNHCR teams can stay on the ground and deliver vital aid this winter, and beyond.

Thank you again,

Monia Hassan
